CFF Green Screen:
The North Drift

A filmmaker from Dresden and his friends build unique buoys equipped with a GPS locator to see how Europe's river network is connected to the ocean. From what was originally a solo venture born out of his horror at the fact that European waste is clogging even the most remote corners of the planet, Steffen manages to create a scientific project involving engineers, oceanographers and the public. Breathtaking shots of the monumental Norwegian countryside and scenes of the team's excitement at following the route of special buoys are interspersed with shocking images of plastic colonies occupying natural landscapes previously untouched by civilisation.



The film will be introduced by the poet Bernardeta Babáková with a reading of a poem specially written for the evening.

The screening will be followed by a discussion.
